VW tyres: winter, all season, summer tires

Volkswagen vehicles usually have factory-installed tyres of such brands as Michelin, Continental, Pirelli, Dunlop, Yokohama, Bridgestone, Hankook and others.

The car manufacturer recommends choosing components from proven manufacturers. For instance, Avon ZV7 and Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance are suitable for Golf and Passat models. Crossovers such as Touareg and Tiguan are better to be equipped with Uniroyal RainSport 3 SUV, Dunlop Sport Max RT2 and Pirelli Scorpion Verde.

Tyres for Volkswagen can be both premium and mid-range. It depends on the vehicle model and trim level. Since November 2014, all VW passenger cars are equipped with a tyre pressure monitoring system.

A lifespan of these components depends on operating conditions and is about 35,000 km on average. A minimum tread depth is 1.6 mm. It is necessary to replace four wheels at once; otherwise, braking efficiency and vehicle manoeuvrability will be reduced.

Keep tyres in a dry cool place to extend their lifespan. When exposed to high temperatures and ultraviolet radiation for a long time, the rubber loses its elasticity and leads to premature wear-out.

Components approved by the car manufacturers have special markings VO and VW.
